About Panamá
The name Panamá comes from a Native American word meaning “place of many fish.” From the cosmopolitan financial center of Panamá City, to the Chiriqui Highlands cloud forest, to the isolated San Blas Islands in the Caribbean, there’s much to experience and learn in Panamá. You’ll find beaches of unparalleled beauty with coral gardens lining their shores and rainforests with exotic animals and rare birds.
